Hello, my name is node.js but you may call me
"node"
Before We Start
We need: Knowledge of JavaScript Web Browser Terminal
What about help? nodejs.org docs #node.js on Freenode IRC StackOverflow
General searching for javascript, node.js, or npm
What is Node?
According to Node Node's goal is to provide an easy
way to build scalable network programs
According to me NodeJs is a super awesome tool that
allows me to take over the world.
But seriously... JavaScript ECMAScript 5 No ugly DOM! Built on
top of V8 Single threaded Asynchronous, non-blocking I/O Windows, Mac, Linux
Let's get started!
Step 1 Go to http://nodejs.org Click the `install` button. Follow
the instructions.
Step 2 Gain an understanding of: Prototypal Inheritance Closures Event
Loop
Step 2a JavaScript the Good Parts - Douglas Crockford http://livestre.am/JC3U
or http://amzn.com/B002AWX8BO Eloquent JavaScript - Marijn Haverbeke http://eloquentjavascript.net/ JavaScript Design Patterns - Addy Osmani http://addyosmani.com/resources/essentialjsdesignpatterns/book
Step 3
Step 4 Profit Global Domination You get the point
Doing Good with NodeJs Event Driven Promises Callbacks
Event Driven require('events') Extend with EventEmitter Simple API on once
removeListener removeAllListeners emit
Promises Relatively new to JavaScript promisejs.org npm packages q promised-io
deferred promise.then(successFn, errorFn, progressFn)
Callbacks `(err, data)` pattern `.bind` to maintain scope ( )
maintains variables where defined http://www.digital-web.com/articles/scope_in_javascript/ More on JavaScript patterns in the online book(s).
Package Management npm 85,000+ packages Packages can be global or
isolated to project
Building Packages npm init package.json configuration for node module dependency
information command line load point (`bin`) npm install module npm install module --save Saved in ./node_modules/
Usage require('mod') core or npm require('./mod') relative to app require('/home/mod')
absolute from drive
Command Line which node HashBang (#!) path +x the js
file to it's executable make it installable via npm
Demo!
Web Server & Apps http clusters, PM2 ExpressJs, HapiJs, Restify
Socket.io ( ) nodemon database MongoDb MySQL Postgres http://caniuse.com/websockets
Demo!
Don't Use Node for... Number Crunching (IEEE 754 "Double") 0.1
+ 0.2 === 0.3 // false Synchronous I/O calls Shell Scripting * Making toast ? ( ) http://youtu.be/MqHDDtVYJRI http://survivejs.com/current_state/might_run_on_toaster.html
